The Government has released an updated list of support services available to National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants. It flagged planned changes earlier this year but didn’t hand down details until this week. Internet, gym memberships, marriage counselling, wellness coaching and sex services are among the list of things not covered by the NDIS. Some disability advocates have raised concerns that they weren't given enough notice about the changes. In today's deep dive, we'll explore what's changed, what it means for participants, and what the reaction has been like.

The consumer watchdog has accused Coles and Woolworths of unlawfully misleading customers through “discount pricing claims”. The latest Roy Morgan trust data tells us that Coles and Woolies are some of Australian shoppers’ least trusted brands. Yet so many of us can't help but gravitate towards their “special buys”. So, what keeps drawing us in? Consumers are drawn to reduced prices in a cost-of-living crisis, but psychological factors can also significantly influence our purchasing behaviours. In today’s deep dive, we’ll explore the science behind supermarket discounts, and how consumer behaviour influences retailers’ tactics.

In today’s deep dive, we’ll look into the legal proceedings against Coles and Woolworths, how they’ve responded, and what could this mean for consumers.

The Fertility Society of Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ) has released a new plan to overhaul how reproductive technologies like IVF are accessed and regulated in Australia. The findings reveal a system that discriminates against “non-traditional” families, is legislated inconsistently across the states and territories, and may not be prepared to meet future demand for these technologies. When starting a family becomes challenging, can Australians truly depend on the sector designed to support them? We explore the future challenges of IVF in today's deep dive.

The Federal Government has introduced a new piece of legislation to crack down on the spread of misinformation and disinformation on social media platforms. It’s an attempt to regulate false information from spreading in the online world, and is the second time the Government has had a go at this specific issue.

In today’s deep dive, we’ll explain the history of this legislation, what the latest bill says and why it’s being criticised.

It was the second time in about two months that a gunman had been in shooting distance of the former president. Now, questions about how this could happen to a man who is constantly surrounded by security are intensifying.

Over the past few months, you may have seen headlines that two astronauts are currently stuck in space.
Now to be clear, NASA and Boeing have really tried to deny that these astronauts are stuck or stranded or whatever word you want to use that implies they aren’t able to leave.
But we do know one thing. The two astronauts were only meant to be in space for eight days, but now they will be there for at least eight months.
So how did this all unfold? We are going to get to the bottom of it in today’s deep dive.

Yesterday we saw the first U.S. Presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
It was fiery, robust and, at times, very… messy.
It was also very different to the debate we saw between Trump and Biden in June. Then, Trump seemed like the almost certain winner. But now, it’s neck and neck.
If you missed it, or if you’re just here for a debrief, we’ll go through some of the key takeaways in today’s podcast.
